GUIDED LIGHT

With a simple press-to-operate function, a timed light sequence shines from Brave and Able's tummies to help children follow a slower breathing pace, to calm their nervous system and slow their feelings of overwhelm. The light guide has an automatic five-minute shut-off function.

SENSORY DELIGHT

Made of beautifully soft fabrics in a variety of shapes and textures, these trusted companions have many sensory elements for kids to hold to help them regain focus while they practise slowing their breathing and work through their big feelings. They are also great snugglers and suitable for bedtimes.

CALM BREATHING SKILLS

Learn slow, deep breathing skills without the need for an app or a smartphone. Guided light teaches kids how to calmly take control of their breathing and regain focus. With a clearer mind you can more easily work through your big feelings and challenges. These skills can be carried within them for a lifetime, into the tricky teenage years and beyond!

ROUTINE BUILDER

Encourage regular quiet play, brain breaks and time in. Build mindful breathing time into morning or evening routines, or while kids are calm, so that these skills can be recalled in tricky situations when they need them most. Brave and Able are a tangible tool for parents and caregivers to engage children in conversations about big, confusing feelings, and provide a demonstration for how to work through them.

TAKE US ANYWHERE

Fully portable and with no need for wifi, children can practise with their Breathing Buddies wherever their adventures take them, requiring only 2 x AAA batteries for operation (not included).

BACKED BY SCIENCE

Did you know that calm breathing is a key tool to help ground your child, help performance, help anxiety, help connection and help resilience? Scientific studies have shown that slow, deep breathing has the ability to reduce anxiety, increase confidence and memory, and even grow new brain cells!

Worrying our worries away with a Worry Box

One of the most worrying things about worries and anxiety for our kids is that it is inside them – inside their head, and not something they can easily touch or externalise. It can feel scary and make our kids feel alone, particularly when their head is full of lots of worries. Sometimes kids find it hard to say their worries out loud, or put them into words, and they worry about what might happen if they do. Worry Boxes are a great, tangible way for children and young people to externalise their worries, thoughts and anxieties and give them some control over them. Here's how to create your own worry box.
